The Smartest Way to Filter Your Honey Harvest

Stop the frustrating process of filtering your honey through one clogged screen after another. The BuzzBeeEquip Double-Layer Honey Strainer is engineered with a simple, brilliant design that solves the most common filtering problem: speed. This system allows you to perform a coarse and a fine filtration in a single pour.

Here’s how you’ll get a better result, faster. The efficient two-stage design nests a coarse, 250-micron filter inside a fine, 100-micron filter. When you pour your freshly extracted honey, the top layer instantly catches the large debris—wax chunks, bee parts, and wood fragments. This pre-filters the honey, which then flows freely into the fine filter below. This second stage removes the tiny particles and foam that cause cloudiness, all without the fine mesh getting clogged by the big stuff.

Both filters are made from durable, food-grade nylon mesh. This material is specifically chosen because it’s strong enough to hold the weight of the honey, flexible enough to fit various containers, and completely inert, meaning it will not impart any taste or chemicals into your pure honey. The conical funnel shape is another key design feature; it uses gravity to maximize the filter’s surface area, which dramatically speeds up the flow rate compared to a flat strainer. You’ll spend less time waiting and more time bottling your beautiful, crystal-clear honey.

Success Story: Retailer Reduces Customer Complaints

A major online beekeeping supplier in the United States previously sold single-stage honey filters and frequently received customer complaints about slow filtering times and constant clogging. After switching to the BuzzBeeEquip Double-Layer Nylon Filter, they saw a 60% reduction in negative product reviews related to performance. The efficient two-stage design led to higher customer satisfaction and a 25% increase in repeat purchases for honey harvesting supplies.

 

Nylon vs. Stainless Steel: Which Strainer is Right for You?

The right material depends on your specific needs, budget, and scale. Both nylon and stainless steel are excellent for filtering honey, but they serve different types of beekeepers.

• Double-Layer Nylon (This Model):
  • Best for: Hobbyists, beginners, and small-scale beekeepers.
  • Why: It offers exceptional filtration performance at an unbeatable value. It is lightweight, easy to store, and the flexible design is very forgiving. It’s the perfect, cost-effective way to produce professionally clear honey.
• Stainless Steel Strainers:
  • Best for: Commercial operations, sideliners, and beekeepers who prioritize lifetime durability.
  • Why: Stainless steel is incredibly durable, rigid, and can be sanitized with very high heat. While it represents a larger initial investment, its robust construction is ideal for heavy, repeated use over many seasons.

 

Everything You Need for a Clean Harvest

This double filter is the key to clear honey. Pair it with these essential tools to create a complete, efficient harvesting and bottling system.

• 5-Gallon Bucket with Honey Gate: This is the perfect foundation for your filtering setup. The conical filter rests inside, and once your honey is strained, the gate allows for easy, no-mess bottling.
• Uncapping Tank with Sieve: Create a dedicated workspace for uncapping your frames. The tank collects all the honey and wax drippings, which can then be easily poured through your nylon filter.
• Uncapping Roller or Scratcher: These tools are essential for opening the wax cappings on your honeycomb before extraction, ensuring a good honey flow.
• Honey Refractometer: The final quality check. After filtering, use a refractometer to test your honey’s moisture content. A reading below 18.6% ensures your honey is perfectly cured and stable for long-term storage.

 

Your Honey Filter Questions Answered

Q1: What are the exact filtration sizes of the two layers?

The upper, coarse filter has openings of approximately 250 microns (roughly equivalent to a 60 mesh screen). The lower, fine filter has openings of approximately 100 microns (equivalent to a 150 mesh screen).

Q2: What is the main advantage of a two-layer system?

It prevents clogging. The top coarse filter removes the large debris that would quickly clog a fine filter, allowing the second stage to work efficiently on only the small particles. This results in a much faster, continuous flow.

Q3: Is the nylon material safe to use with honey?

Absolutely. We use 100% food-grade, virgin nylon fiber that is certified to be safe for contact with food. It will not leach chemicals or impart any flavor into your honey.

Q4: How do I clean these nylon filters?

Cleaning is easy. The best method is to turn them inside out and rinse with hot water. The water pressure will push all the wax and debris out of the mesh. Allow them to air dry completely before storage.

Q5: Will these filters fit on my non-standard bucket?

The filters are designed with a flexible metal ring that has some give. They are made to fit perfectly on a standard 5-gallon bucket but will often accommodate slightly different diameters as well.

Q6: Will this system filter out the beneficial pollen in my raw honey?

No. This is a key benefit for raw honey producers. Most nutrient-rich pollen grains are between 20-40 microns in size. Our fine filter is 100 microns, so the vast majority of pollen will pass through with the honey.

Q7: How does this nylon filter compare to a stainless steel one?

Nylon is lightweight, flexible, and very affordable, making it a great choice for hobbyists. Stainless steel is more rigid, extremely durable for a lifetime of use, and can be sanitized with higher heat, making it a preference for commercial use.

Q8: Why is the conical shape important?

The cone shape uses gravity to its advantage, creating a much larger surface area for the honey to filter through compared to a flat-bottomed strainer. This design is a primary reason for its faster filtration speed.

Q9: Are the two filters sold separately?

They are designed and sold as a nested set. Their effectiveness comes from working together, so we always recommend using them as a complete two-stage system.

Q10: Do you offer wholesale pricing for beekeeping clubs or retailers?

Yes, we do. As a primary manufacturer, we provide excellent wholesale pricing for retail stores and bulk discounts for beekeeping associations and clubs. Please contact our sales team for a quote based on your needs.
